It pushed her down and she hit a glass door. The bear then ran away, right through a fence, and fell eight feet down into the woods. But it didn’t give up.

Berghorn said it came back and her husband fired two shots at it. He missed and the bear ran off.

Berghorn was treated for minor injuries and bruises.

“If he had his nails out I’d be in the hospital,” she said. “Nothing broke, and I was very lucky.”

Investigators from the New Hampshire Department of Fish and Game are now trying to find the bear and figure out what caused it to attack.

“I think she was very fortunate, but I think the bear was probably as scared as she was. I think the bear was probably more scared than anything else,” Fish and Game Conservation Officer Brad Morse told WBZ-TV.
